You crash out on his side   All is quiet, all is calm   The air thick with stale smoke   Your cheap perfume and alcohol      And although you know, you need him   Like a stake through your heart   You think it's worse to stay apart      'Cause it's the last day of summer   And it will hurt you more than most   'Cause you're still trying to mine   For memories in a ghost      It's the last day of summer   And you know you're not supposed   But you're still trying to mine   For memories in a ghost      You're absence makes no sense   Just a constant state of suspense   And although you both know   The bubble might burst as soon as you meet      Another false start   Rather than to stay apart      'Cause it's the last day of summer   And it will hurt you more than most   'Cause you're still trying to mine   For memories in a ghost      It's the last day of summer   And you know you're not supposed   But you're still trying to mine   For memories in a ghost
